KENNEBUNK — According to a Coast Star investigation, the office space at 1 High St. was until Feb. 14 the home of Sensual Body Work by Lydia.

According to an affidavit filed by Kennebunk Police on Tuesday in Biddeford District Court, Alexis Wright rented the space at 1 High St. pictured in the Sensual Body Work by Lydia website. The landlord, Christopher West, identified the office space as Wright's, according to court records.

The Sensual Body Work by Lydia site touted "sensual body rubs." According to the state's Agency License Management System, Alexis Wright is not licensed in massage therapy. Doug Dunbar, spokesman for the department, said all licensees are found on the website. Dunbar and the administrator of the Massage Therapy Licensure Program also searched for Alexis Wright, but could not locate a licensee by that name.

According to the massage parlor's website, www.sensualbodybylydia.com, which is no longer operational, these services were offered in the nude in a "comforting and warm environment that is very discreet." It stated that a 30-minute session cost $195, while a one-hour session was $300, though "fantasy role playing and fetish may be extra."

According to the Department of Professional and Financial Regulation Office of Licensing and Registration, disciplinary action is possible if an untrained or unqualified person encourages or promotes massage therapy, engages in any lewd, indecent, obscene or unlawful behavior, massages genital areas of a client who is not properly draped, or fails to refrain from initiating or engaging any sexual conduct, sexual activities or sexualizing behavior with a client.

Sources say Wright had been operating the massage parlor out of a suite at 1 High St. from early January until it was searched by police on Feb. 14, in a building that also houses Atlantic Tattoo, Downeast Flowers, Total Look hair salon, and Hamilton Driving School. The Pura Vida Studio, Wright's Zumba facility, is located just across the street, between Best Nails and Toppings Pizza.

By Feb. 16, following a police search of the premises, the office where the massage parlor was allegedly operating was stripped bare. Messages left for the building's owner were not returned.

Reached on Wednesday, both Wright and her attorney, Sarah A. Churchill of the law firm of Strike, Goodwin and O'Brien in Portland, declined to comment.

On the massage business's website, which was taken down days after the search, photos of a woman who appears to be Wright could be seen in various poses and garb, including a G-string, different pieces of lingerie, and a see-through bra.

In the site's blog, a woman who appears to be Wright and identifies herself as "Lydia" wrote about her clients and openings in her calendar, encouraging prospective clients to contact her on her cell phone or at her e-mail address. The last day a message was posted to the blog was Valentine's Day.

On Nov. 28, a message posted to the blog read: "And to my regular clients that came today, you put constant smiles on my face, giggles and other noises that I won't mention on here!"

On Nov. 9, the blog had this post: "I had the most wonderful voyeur experience yesterday!" On Nov. 3, the blog carried an account of giving a nude all-over body rub to an older woman while her husband watched.

In addition to the provocative photos and comments on the massage website, a Coast Star investigation revealed amateur pornography videos bearing Wright's name, the Zumba trademark, and her location as the town of Kennebunk posted on numerous websites. On several different sites, hundreds of sexually explicit photos and videos were posted, dating as far back as 2010 to a video posted on Feb. 7 showing a woman who appears to be Wright dancing nude in the Pura Vida Studio.

Wright is licensed as an instructor with Zumba Fitness and has been a member of the Zumba instructor network since April 2008, according to online records.

According to a report in the Coast Star in January 2009, Wright taught a Zumba class at Kennebunk High School through the adult education program, and in April 2011 led dance-exercise demonstrations at the EcoDay festivities at the Wells Reserve at Laudholm.

Sensual Body Work by Lydia was advertised on the website backpage.com, including a request for new clients as recently as Valentine's Day.

Much of the material was removed from those websites in February. Following the Feb. 14 search, the Sensual Body Work by Lydia website was changed to simply read, "Thanks for visiting!"
